Is there a way Prometheus can pass cookie in each scrape request to Spring Boot

[Aracki]

I'm trying to scrape Spring Boot service running in production. We are using micrometer with prometheus registry:

compile 'io.micrometer:micrometer-spring-legacy:1.0.6'
compile 'io.micrometer:micrometer-registry-prometheus:1.0.6'

Environment

• Prometheus version:

  I am running Prometheus in docker. Image: prom/prometheus:v2.4.2

• Prometheus configuration file:

global:
  scrape_interval:     5s # Set the scrape interval to every 5 seconds.
  evaluation_interval: 5s # Evaluate rules every 5 seconds.
scrape_configs:
  - job_name: 'global'
    metrics_path: '/management/prometheus'
    static_configs:
      - targets: ['global:8081']

• Logs:

server returned HTTP status 403

What is the proper way to pass through Spring Security? Is there a way for a Prometheus to send cookie with session id? What is the best practices here?

I have asked this on SO too.

Prometheus supports basic HTTP, X509 client and bearer token authentications.

After further research I have found out that there's no current way to set cookies via the scrape config.

Prometheus supports only HTTP Authorization headers like Basic and Bearer tokens.
